Hi, As a test, I have created a rootCA, a subCA (signed by the rootCA) and a client cert (signed by the subCA). Now I want to use verify, s_client and s_server to test them together. However I searched and tried a number of times but still unsure about the correct syntax format in verify command. This is what I did: cat rootCA.crt subCA.crt > caChain.crt openssl -verbose -verify -CAflie caChain.crt clientCert.crt openssl verify -CAfile caChain.crt client/clientCert.crt client/clientCert.crt: C = US, ST = California, O = David's company, CN = David's client cert, emailAddress = david.li at example.com error 47 at 0 depth lookup:permitted subtree violation However it seems my s_client and s_server test is OK: I created a caChain by cancatenating rootCA and subCA together: Server: openssl s_server -cert server/serverComb.crt -www -CAfile caChain.crt -verify 3 where serverComb.crt = cat of serverCert and server key Client: openssl s_client -CAfile caChina.crt -cert client/clientComb.crt where clientComb is = cat of clientCert and clientKey Anyone has any idea why verify command failed? Thanks.
